A while ago, I was at the supermarket buying my shampoo and I took a look at the hair products available. I wanted to find something to nourish my hair, but without giving me the feeling of greasiness.

I am fond of DESSANGE products, so I took my time checking their hair care range, and I found this ultimate gesture of care from their tailored care program, “The Elixir Concentré De Nutrition”.

Formulated with smoothing agents, “The Elixir Concentré De Nutrition” without rinsing,isenriched with 2 rich oils, primrose and sesame. Its creamy and velvety formula infuses the dry ends with moisture to feed them intensively and reshape your hair without weighting it down.

How to apply?

After finishing your shower, comb your hair and then apply two to three drops on the tips of your hair and the very dry areas, rub gently massaging with your fingertips. Do not rinse! Just dry your hair afterwards.

Don’t forget to shake it before use!

What I liked about this product?

I have greasy hair and I don’t like the leave in products, because of their heavy texture that makes me uncomfortable. But “TheElixir Concentré De Nutrition” has a very softtexture and smell, it mixes with the hair quickly adding a nice sweet smell.

From silky hair conditioners to beautiful balms, Lush’s collection of hair products are designed to leave your hair looking shiny, healthy, and happy. Shake off the dull this summer and treat yourself to a range of fabulous hair products from Lush. All hair products are made using natural and organic ingredients so you can feel confident there is no harm done to your precious locks.

American Cream

Bring all the boys to the yard with this strawberry vanilla milkshake conditioner. A beautiful fruit and vanilla conditioner that really does the job – a dreamy, medium strength conditioner for soft, shiny, fragrant locks. This is a thick heavy conditioner, but won’t leave the hair weighted down or heavy. Its combination of honey, strawberries, and fresh orange juice in a thick lanolin conditioner base, will make the hair soft, manageable and easy to comb.

Big

Have a big hair day. This is like having your hair lifted on a sea breeze. We love salt on the hair because it’s great for giving volume. We experimented with it for a very long time before coming up with this, our ultimate salt shampoo. Sea salt is also full of minerals and de-greases hair, removing dead skin cells and dirt without stripping natural oils for a fresh, squeaky clean feeling. We balance the sea salt with seaweed infusion, extra virgin coconut oil and avocado butter for soft, nourished locks. Finally, fresh citrus juices are squeezed in for incredible shine.

Rehab

If you don’t have any prior engagements, then why not spend a night in putting your hair into rehab? Hairspray, bleach, colors, styling products, ill-health; these are all things that can really take a toll on your hair and leave it far away from its natural best. Rehab is about bringing your hair and scalp back to basics and repairing it with an array of lovely ingredients. A blend of fresh citrus juices clarify hair and scalp with active enzymes, while herbs work their magic on tired scalps. It doesn’t take long for this shampoo to restore your hair’s vitality!

Shine So Bright

A beautiful balm to prevent split ends and help hair shine so bright. Extra virgin coconut and olive oils, shea butter and fresh free range eggs nourish and improve the tensile strength of hair to prevent and mend split ends. It works wonderfully as a finishing product as well, taming fly-aways and keeping hair in place for a flawless look. Add to that an orange flower, grapefruit, neroli and rosewood perfume and you won’t want to leave home without this!

New

Spice up your hair! Give it new life. When stress or life goes to your head and your hair starts thinning, motivate those tired scalps with spice and mint oils. It’s intense, but works wonders on irritated scalps or hair that’s thinning. Healthy hair needs a healthy scalp as its foundation. New Shampoo bar has two tasks; to give amazing shine and stimulate hair follicles to maximize growth. Nettle and peppermint infusions give shine to the hair. Rosemary and nettle absolutes are included to protect, soothe and clear the scalp and also give shine.

Retread

Drive your hair in for some serious breakdown recovery. This is a pit stop for your hair. Just like tyres, the outer layer of your hair shaft gets worn and damaged. Retread is full of ingredients to fuel your hair up again and get it back out on the road. A super-smoothing conditioning cream that gives sad hair its shine and bounce back. We make a seaweed and lanolin base and then add soya milk for protein. Added to that are olive, jojoba and avocado oils to give a deep condition. Nutritious fresh melon juice and yogurt are then stirred through.

Roots

Thine be the glory – Don’t despair, we’ve got a treatment for thin and fine hair. The route to mighty fine hair. Fine hair needs careful looking after. This treatment is packed full of ingredients to revitalize from root to tip. You’ll feel the tingling and cooling sensations of fresh mint infusion and minty oils (peppermint and spearmint) as they go to work revitalizing the scalp, because healthy hair starts at the roots! Extra virgin olive oil and honey soften and condition hair to make it shine without weighing it down. Give dull, fine and thin hair volume and shine by treating it with Roots.

I have been pampering myself with the normal version for the last two weeks after shower and I’m in LOVE.

I love the soft, pleasant smell of it.

I love the soft texture when touching the skin. I thought that since it’s an oil, it will keep my skin oily and will need a lot of time to dry, but I was completely wrong, it dries instantly, leaving you with a feathery skin.

The Huile Prodigieuse from Nuxe, is a great product for everyday use, it works everywhere and doesn’t damage your skin. You should definitely try it!

Marilyn Monroe was blonde by choice. Millions of women emulated her style and the way she styled and coloured her hair. Once again, her glamour waves make the top of the chart

Marilyn Monroe‘s hairstyle was one of her most prominent features, the part that pulled her appealing image together. While it may not have made her a style icon, her lively blonde hair was certainly a memorable part of her appeal. Glamour waves are in style now as they were fifty years ago. Since it is also the Hollywood style of the 1940s and 1950s, you may call wearing those generous waves retro style. Whatever the name, they are feminine and appealing.

Who can have the Retro Style Glamour Waves?

Marilyn Monroe looks as feminine as ever wearing the tousled version of her characteristic hairstyle

Retro style glamour waves enhance round faces more than small long ones.

The hairstyle characteristic of Marilyn Monroe is chin-long, layered, and platinum blonde. Her waves were large and there were not too many of them.

The sensuous hairstyle goes well with bright red lips and black eyeliner.

At Lush, they believe in making effective products from fresh organic fruit and vegetables, the finest essential oils and safe synthetics.

They believe in buying ingredients only from companies that do not conduct or commission tests on animals and in testing our products on humans.

They invent their own products and fragrances, they make them fresh by hand using little or no preservative or packaging, using only vegetarian ingredients and tell you when they were made.

They have a wide product range, for every part of the body.

Bath bars and bombs for the bath, shower gels, jellies, smoothies, butter creams for getting clean, masks, cleansers, toners, moisturizers, serums for good and clean skin, shampoo, conditioners, gels, hair treatment and henna for a gorgeous look, perfumes and deodorants for a great smell, toothy tabs for shining smile, and a Makeup section with a multitude of colors to keep you looking confident 🙂

It was a nice visit, I got the chance to test their scrubs, smell their perfumes and soaps and what captured me the most wast the shining and glittery products, like the Lustre Dusting powder that has a gold shimmer giving the skin a light glow.

I’m also loving their massage bars, like this soft coeur soap that i’m using every day now, it has chocolate, almond oil and honey leaving your skin smooth and tasty 😉

I was caught in a girly discussion the other day, and it seemed that many of us (GIRLS) suffer from greasy hair!

Some of us have found the way to deal with it by finding the right shampoo and washing it each two days, others are still suffering, jumping from one shampoo to another, washing their hair every day because it looks disastrous.

I have always been a fan of Ultra Doux, and I still love it, but a while ago, I felt like changing to something more pro. I was checking the different brands at the supermarket, and my eyes were caught on DESSANGE.

And since I have greasy hair, I chose the soft clay regulatory shampoo

Mixed hair, greasy at the roots, dry at the extremities, there’s an imbalance! The Soft Clay Shampoo regulates permanently, offers a blow of lightness, purity and softness to your hair.

Its new formula enriched with soft clay, lime extracts and Pro-Vitamin B5, regulates the scalp, purifies the roots and softens the extremities.

Day by day, your hair is soft, light and shiny 🙂

And to make it more efficient, I combined it with the Anti dryness conditioner

The Cream Nutri-extreme conditioner offers a real bath of nutrition to your hair.

Its formula enriched with nutritious oils and Pro-Vitamin B5 provides care and softness to your hair.
